Lawyers Observing Yaum-e-Iftikhar

Lawyers are observing Yaum-e-Iftikhar at the completion of one year of judges including Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry’s reinstatement. They are boycotting the courts. On the appeal of Punjab Bar Council, bar associations of the province will pay tributes to CJP Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry. On March 16, 2009, CJP and other suspended judges were restored to their posts after a long march was held in the country.
